Unveiling the Secret History of Microsoft's Copilot Key: A Remnant from the IBM Era

Microsoft introduced the Copilot key, dedicated to launching its generative AI assistant, on some Windows laptops this year, with the key combination being left-Shift + Windows key + F23. The F23 key is rare on modern keyboards, reminiscent of vintage IBM keyboards. The Copilot key is reprogrammable, but its integration into Windows laptops seems premature, as the future of generative AI is still forming. Microsoft plans to make Copilot keys a requirement for Windows 11 OEM PCs eventually.

"Intel's AI PC Dev Program: Unveiling 300+ New Features by 2024"

Microsoft is requiring OEMs to include a Copilot key in their AI PCs, which must also feature a Neural Processing Unit (NPU), the latest CPUs and GPUs. Intel and Microsoft have aligned on Core Ultra, Copilot, and Copilot key, but some laptops, like Asus’ new ROG Zephyrus, have shipped without the key. Intel is expanding its AI PC acceleration program to reach smaller developers and hardware vendors, aiming to optimize apps and hardware for AI PCs. The race for Intel is against Qualcomm, which is about to launch Snapdragon X Elite laptops, and Google is releasing an optimized version of Chrome for Windows on Arm.
